I just stayed in Gifft Hill last week. I bring a go phone for my trips to st john-no problem with service (except on the north shore beaches, but we shouldn't be on the phone there anyway). I also had my verizon phone with me-I received a couple of calls in the villa. By the way, gophones have a new...

I'm in Central New York-we get more snow than you (usually)! We'll be there in February.

On the lake? Are you on Skaneateles? I'm in Manlius.

We flew out of STT last Saturday-what a disaster. We've never had problems in the past. The flight was delayed for 2 hours due to passengers not being able to get through the long US Air line, the customs line, and TSA. The plane began boarding on time-but the passengers weren't there yet! I was sit...

We just got back from 4 nights on St John (not a direct flight-coming from upstate NY). I suggest go for it. And for 3 nights, you certainly can do carry-on as well.

I tried calling them today to confirm a car for next week and got a message that the phone was disconnected. Anyone have any info?

One reason I love St John is that you can wear your bathing suit and/or shirts all day and night. No need to bring fancy clothes for evening wear. for snorkeling, I have the mini fins that fit in my carryon (they work fairly well). Since I always need to change planes (live in Syracuse, NY), any tim...

We bought the short fins because they're easier to pack. They work fairly well.

We rented on STT for the first time a few weeks ago from Dependable. We had no problems. I agree that you can go for 2 days in cruz bay without a car. Either option will work.

We're thinking of either jvd or tortola for a day via ferry. for tortola, should we rent a car and go around the island? Any ideas helpful; we'd like to go on Sunday

Sunday July 20, my husband and I would like to go to JVD. We were on Jost once before on a Baths, snorkel day trip. Any suggestions for lunch. After we get off the ferry, where do we go?

Who wants to meet at the beach bar July 20?

I think Sibella might be for sale. Check this listing out:
